I’m looking back at some old journals from the year Higgins ‘arrived’. This is a particularly lovely memory.

‘He’ rocked my head in a short back and forth way. Then after some time of that moved my head into a longer rocking motion that coincided with gentle breathing. This latter was very comfortable. Eventually, I was able to ascertain a breathe and release pattern. When I did, he ‘said’, “And as breathing is natural and flowing, so should you take what you need when you need it and release it back when you’re through. Life has a rhythm to it. Constant flux. Take what you need at that time and let the rest pass by.”
